Getting Ready for Advent

As you and your family get ready for Christmas, I hope you will do more than wrap gifts and send greeting cards.  The church gets ready for Christmas by celebrating the season of Advent, a time of watching and waiting. 

Why not start a tradition of lighting Advent Candles each week to help mark the time? 

Or maybe you would  like to take time each day for some reflection and meditation — then sign up for the Advent Daily Devotional by email.

If visual art speaks to you more deeply than words, you can focus your daily meditation on some beautiful art images.

All of these (and more!) resources come as part of i.ucc, the United Church of Christ’s online community of faith.  There’s even some Advent and Christmas Karaoke!
